Chapter 67: Moving to Heaven Dou City?

The softness of her lips brushed against his cheek.

Dan Heng was momentarily stunned, as if a fire had ignited within him.

Looking at Gu Yuena's picturesque face, his mind unexpectedly conjured up some rather inappropriate images.

"You..."

"Husband, you've never had another woman before, have you?" Gu Yuena asked softly, gazing at Dan Heng with amusement.

Dragons were naturally lustful creatures, especially the males.

For Dan Heng, the strongest dragon she had ever encountered, to have lived for so long without another woman?

In an instant, Gu Yuena felt an inexplicable sense of delight.

Dan Heng snapped back to reality. "Since your body has recovered, once we're ready, we'll head back. We've spent enough time in Star Luo City."

They had only been here a few days, and it had already forced him to visit the Star Luo Palace.

If they stayed any longer, who knew what other troubles might arise?

Seeing Dan Heng's reaction, Gu Yuena chuckled lightly and said gently, "Alright, I'll listen to you, my husband..."

Resting against Dan Heng's chest, Gu Yuena still hadn't managed to make him develop ambitions of uniting the Douluo Continent.

However, confirming his "love" for her was already the greatest reward!

Bang—!

Just then, the door suddenly burst open.

Zi Ji rushed in, tripped over the threshold, and fell flat on her face.

When she looked up and saw Gu Yuena awake, her face immediately filled with joy.

"Sister!!!"

"This is wonderful, Sister! You're finally awake! I missed you so much!"

Zi Ji choked up and then dashed toward Gu Yuena.

At that moment, she even forgot her fear of Dan Heng. She squeezed herself onto the bed beside him, using her ample figure to shove Dan Heng aside, and hugged Gu Yuena tightly.

Tears streamed down her face as she sobbed,

"Sister… you scared me to death! I thought I'd never see you again! I missed you so much… It's all my fault. If I hadn't been so foolish, I wouldn't have dragged you into this…"

Gu Yuena was about to reprimand her for pushing Dan Heng away, but sensing Zi Ji's genuine emotions, she smiled slightly and gently patted Zi Ji's shoulder.

"It's alright. I've already recovered, Zi Ji. You did nothing wrong."

Hearing this, Zi Ji cried even harder.

The Lord actually wasn't blaming her!

Dan Heng watched their heartfelt reunion, then got up and said, "I'll go pack our things. We'll set off tomorrow."

With that, he began gathering their belongings.

That evening.

Gu Yuena's recovery delighted everyone, and Zi Ji took the opportunity to ask Dan Heng to cook personally.

Dan Heng agreed without hesitation and prepared a table full of dishes.

"Sister, try this… And this one, it's delicious too! The food at that perverted old man's place is nothing compared to Brother-in-law's cooking." Zi Ji's mouth barely paused between bites as she spoke.

Gu Yuena tapped her on the forehead and laughed.

"Be more ladylike. How will you ever find a husband like this?"

Zi Ji shrugged indifferently. "Who needs a husband? Things are perfect the way they are. I'll just live with you, Sister. Or better yet, Brother-in-law can just marry me too! I don't mind being the second wife, as long as he cooks for me every day..."

The moment she finished speaking, Zi Ji felt a sudden chill all over her body.

Slowly looking up, she saw Gu Yuena's half-smiling expression.

Crap!

She had misspoken again!

These dishes were clearly all made for the Lord, yet she dared to covet them?

"I…"

Gu Yuena tapped Zi Ji's forehead with her chopsticks and said softly, "That won't do, Zi Ji. I don't like sharing."

Zi Ji nodded frantically. "I understand, Sister!"

She could share a meal with the Lord once or twice, but there was no way she could keep imposing like this.

If she really wanted to eat good food regularly, she'd have to find a chef for herself.

Gu Yuena glanced at Dan Heng, then teased, "Husband, what do you think about taking a second wife?"

Dan Heng sighed helplessly. "Stop joking…"

One wife was already a handful—he still had to find medicinal ingredients in the Divine Realm.

If he took another, he'd never have a moment of peace!

Gu Yuena's lips curved upward.

Before, Dan Heng's personality had been an issue that troubled her.

But now, things had completely reversed—his reluctance meant that in the future, he would never "cheat" on her!

Just then—

There was a knock at the door.

Zhu Zhuqing opened it to find the Dragon Serpent family of three standing there.

Meng Shu, the Dragon Duke, smiled. "Looks like we arrived at just the right time—right in time for a feast. We're not intruding, are we?"

Dan Heng shook his head slightly and gestured for Zhu Zhuqing to bring three more sets of utensils.

After sitting down, Meng Shu chatted with Dan Heng about recent events.

"I've visited four or five times over the past few days, but you were never home, Dan Heng," Meng Shu sighed, looking a little regretful.

"..."

Dan Heng was speechless.

Of course, Meng Shu couldn't find him.

He had spent these days either accompanying Gu Yuena on dates, buying medicinal ingredients, or even making a trip to the palace.

Where would Meng Shu have been able to find him?

After chatting for a while, Meng Shu finally got to the main topic.

"Dan Heng, I won't force you to join the Meng family. But staying in a small town like that—it's a waste of your talents, and it's not exactly peaceful either."

"Many soul masters come to the Star Dou Forest to hunt soul beasts. Given your wife and disciples, sooner or later, you're bound to attract some trouble."

"If you don't mind, you could move to Heaven Dou City with us. It would be much safer there."

Meng Shu's suggestion was quite reasonable.

Dan Heng frowned slightly.

The events in Star Luo City had shown him just how attractive Gu Yuena was to others.

Would Heaven Dou City really be safer?

But it would certainly be better than staying in a small town.

Even his colleagues had started to notice something unusual about him, and it was no longer as comfortable as before.

Gu Yuena's eyes lit up—she had just come up with an idea.

Meanwhile, at the Zhu residence.

After returning from the palace, Zhu Zhuyun immediately relayed everything that had happened there to the Duke and Duchess.

Hearing the news, the Duke of Zhu's expression turned complicated.

"Dan Heng is actually that powerful? No wonder… no wonder he was able to teach Zhuqing. It turns out he's a Titled Douluo! Good! This is excellent! Zhuyun, what did the Empress say?"

"Aunt said she will personally cultivate me. As for Zhuqing, she's been taken away, so the Star Luo royal family likely won't pursue the matter further."

Zhu Zhuyun explained calmly.

Seeing how much her father valued Dan Heng, she felt a pang of frustration.

She was the one who would be personally trained by the Star Luo royal family—wasn't that a great achievement?

Yet, Zhu Zhuqing had defied the royal family and caused trouble for the Zhu family… and still ended up being the one that everyone paid more attention to.

The Duke of Zhu was so excited that he paced back and forth.

"A Titled Douluo! That girl—Zhuqing actually has a chance to change her fate! Even if she fails, at least she won't be crippled!"

"Hurry! Prepare a gift! I will deliver it personally!"
